I liked this book, but which way you fall will probably be determined by whether you are satisfied with a good premise or you need fully developed, well crafted characters.The premise is terrific.
With his novel Exchange Dale R. Cozort's presents an exciting mix of science-fiction and alternate history.
Sharon Mack, a computer guru, is working on the front lines of the Exchange Zone due to a mistake by the local government. Being a divorced single mother of a 7 year old she shouldn't be there in the midst of an Exchange, the swapping of the World with an alternate reality, in case something goes wrong.

This is a first published novel by a relatively young author. He has been writing for a number of years however, and it shows.
I was pleasantly surprised by this novel. While there were elements about the main character that made her a little unbelieveable, all in all the novel was an enjoyable read.
One of the best things about Dale Cozort's Exchange is the interesting blend of genres. His remarkable facility and affinity for alternate history shine in this work, as well as the sci-fi hints, and the romantic elements as well.
Dale Cozort's "Exchange" was really very enjoyable. Set to be publicly available for sale in early July 2010, I openly suggest this to sci-fi and alternate history fans.

Romantic science fiction filled with mystery and traps; serious science fiction where the well-researched facts blend so seamlessly that you hardly notice you've been asked to believe them; complicated fiction with its premise so beautifully drawn you just have to read on; Dale Cozort's Exchange has it all, smoothly written to offer a rich, complex read with great characters, involving mystery, and an endlessly fascinating strange new world. I couldn't put it down.
Sharon Mack has volunteered to help with the latest "exchange" happening in her town of Rockport. She's heard stories of what this alternate dimension contains: deadly monkeys, huge bears, out-of-place kangaroos, and various other strange and deadly creatures.
Review coming soon.
I wasn't sure I was going to like this novel at first, as it isn't normally a genre that I normally read. However I was pleasantly surprised about how much I really enjoyed this novel.
